His physical tools and potential are way too high. It only takes one team to figure it out and as a 2nd round QB, the risk/reward falls greatly on the side of reward.

Personally accept it or not, the NFL doesn’t.

And that’s why GM’s will pursue it.

Makes no difference how great the player is, if he’s suspended.

Mon, 21 Feb 2011 08:21:57 +0000http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=112492#comment-970624where did Evan Silva come from? And who cares? As long as he’s able to perform on the field and is a nice dude off then that’s all that matters. What are they worried about, he will show up high to practice, to games? Very doubtful. I can see if he were strung out all the time off meth or excessive cocaine, but that doesn’t seem to be the issue here. Recreation use should be his own business.

There are a lot of athletes who don’t use drugs that are bad guys regardless. So exactly what are they attempting to figure out?

Potheads can’t play in the NFL since pot causes them to lose focus. Ricky Williams even gave up football for a while because he would rather smoke pot.

Potheads want to believe that pot does not cause any work problems, but the evidence leans the other way.

Brilliant!

Mon, 21 Feb 2011 04:19:22 +0000http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=112492#comment-970595@prioroknowledge- Did you happen to catch the 30 for 30 done on Ricky Williams? The reason he smoked pot was to relieve his anxiety. Many believed that he was legitimately bipolar. Ever see him do interviews with his helmet on?

I don’t disagree with the thought you’re trying to get at but the Ricky Williams thing is a poor, poor example.

Don’t be an idiot, Marino didn’t win a ring because for every 1 thing Miami does right, they do 10 things wrong. Marino had a horrible supporting cast. (And because Satan is a Jets fan. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ha2i2h3iRZc)

Sun, 20 Feb 2011 23:32:38 +0000http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=112492#comment-970395Talk about blantant hypocrisy. In one article these sports writers are questioning the integrity and actions of a kid because of what he did when he was 18. Even going as far as to spinnig the comments of Warren Moon and questioning the kid’s on field talents.

Yet, in this article cynism is being met when Mallet’s private actions are questioned. So Mr. Rang does not like the NFL questioning Mallet’s ‘ “so-called lack of leadership and reports of illegal drug use.” ‘ I wonder if he feels the same way about Cam?

I guess you sports folks have to pretend that u’r “fair and balance” in ur reporting of these athletes…BUT judging by this article and Cam’s, I beg to differ.

Sun, 20 Feb 2011 21:49:50 +0000http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=112492#comment-970329Why is this news? Essentially, even though it’s different from what most of us will ever go through, the Combine is one big job interview. They’re applying for jobs in the NFL.

I’ve been with the same company for ten years, so i don’t remember the process, but isn’t just about everyone asked about drug use, felonies/misdemeanors, etc?

I understand that in Mallett’s case and some others there is “being asked” and “REALLY being asked” but still.
